“Ideal location for sea front & town centre / needs a wee freshen up”

Reviewed 3 Jun 2022

We booked here as we had never explored this area of Scotland. Small cottage , which we knew but almost everything there you needed. Ideal location for sea front (1 minute walk), and town centre (5 minute walk). Situated on what we thought was a quiet residential street but it seems to be a 'rat run' for town, some very fast traffic, as the sign says above the door - watch for traffic when leaving house - you have a doorstep then the road. The air freshener diffuser was a bit overpowering to start with, we never noticed that smoking was allowed, that would explain the slight smell of smoke. It could do with a wee freshen up, electric socket loose and bathroom tap was also loose. Photos on Website says on road parking but there were 2 old camper vans parked opposite which had been there for ages by the look of them. Safe parking 50 yards away in free public carpark. Good value for money and ideal for a few nights away. Could benefit from a welcome / info sheet regards outside dustbin, heating and local info.

Reviewed 25 Sep 2021

Nice little cottage , all you need for a few days away from home. Central for everything and for nearby locations, only thing I would say is in need of a new mattress and pillows. Some damp also in bedroom otherwise super place.

“Cottage”

Reviewed 21 Aug 2021

Had a lovely stay in the cottage, great base to explore the area. Very comfortable and the place has everything you need. Didn't find it a problem parking and the location has the beach and shops/places to eat, only a couple of minutes walk away. We enjoyed being able to relax at night, decent size TV with free view and comfortable furniture. As I said, everything you need for a break away and correspondence with the owner was good. Would definitely recommend the place to anyone wishing to visit the area.
